Is it just me or does storing your 2fa code generators in the same place as your login/pw just seem like a bad idea. I know I’m screwed if someone gained access to my 1p... but they wouldn’t be able to get into the more secure services.

I'm still using 1P for myself, but looking for alternatives. For non-tech-savvy friends and family, I'm recommending iCloud.

Try Bitwarden, which has free tiers. You can later choose a (much cheaper) paid subscription if your needs are bigger. You can also self-host it as it’s FOSS.

I'm looking into this thanks to all the recommendations from HN :)

+1 for Bitwarden. I recommend not saving recovery codes inside Bitwarden. For 2FA I recommend getting a Yubikey. For websites that don't support U2F, I recommend using the Authy app in single device mode with a strong sync passphrase.
I used to use iCloud, and recommended it to anyone. Sign ons have become more, and more... complicated. There is 2FA, and others now, that 1Password also covers. How are you handing those with iCloud?
